Monsoon Returns: Continuous Rain Across Dakshina Kannada and Udupi

Heavy rains drenched the coastal and hilly districts of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi through a continuous 24‑hour rainfall, marking a significant return of the monsoon after a period of low activity last week.

The sustained precipitation follows a lull that saw reduced cloud cover and lighter showers across Karnataka. Farmers in Udupi noted that the unexpected deluge replenished irrigation reservoirs but also risked flooding in low‑lying coastal areas.

Authorities have issued warnings against landslides and flash floods, urging residents to avoid low‑lying roads and to secure loose objects. Source: Google News – Udupi.
